The Adolescent Transplant Recipient
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2010Adolescents constitute a significant proportion of pediatric transplant patients, whether they have survived a transplant in early childhood (like most heart and liver recipients) or are transplanted in older childhood or adolescence, such as many renal transplant recipients. Their needs can be significantly different from either children or adults, as

Infections in Transplant Recipients
2012Infections are the most common complication of organ transplant. They are caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites. Transplant-associated infections usually fall into one of several categories: nosocomial or health care–associated pathogens (Staphylococcus aureus, enterococci, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and others), opportunistic pathogens ...

Xenozoonoses and the Xenotransplant Recipient
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1998The use of animal cells, tissues, or organs for humans is being investigated as an alternative to allotransplantation and as therapy for a broad range of disease states including diabetes, Parkinson's disease, and neurologic pain control. The risk of transmitting novel infections with these tissues, xenozoonoses, has led to much debate.

Photoprotection in Transplant Recipients
2012Skin cancers remain the most commonly diagnosed neoplasms among organ transplant recipients (OTRs), comprising nearly 40% of all posttransplant malignancies. The occurrence of skin tumors has a considerable impact on the quality of life and the overall survival of OTRs.

Transplant Immunology, 2002
In transplantation the risk of acute rejection decreases with recipient age. This is clearly illustrated in transplantation of a non-vascularised tissue, such as the cornea. In vascularised transplants, such as kidneys, acute rejection decreases with recipient age, but the phenomenon is obscured by the fact that chronic allograft nephropathy increases ...
